Breezy conditions can be expected today behind a cold front. West- northwest winds 20 to 25 mph with higher gusts will occur through early afternoon before diminishing this evening. There will be an elevated fire threat from Graham to Cameron through this afternoon where humidity near 20% and gusty winds could lead to fire growth. Otherwise, partly cloudy skies and temperatures in the 70s can be expected.

A reinforcing shot of cooler air will send high temperatures on Tuesday into the 60s, but temperatures will warm back into the mid 70s on Wednesday and upper 70s on Thursday. Expect mainly sunny conditions, although some increasing cloud cover is expected Wednesday and into Thursday.

We will have two SKYWARN Basic Class on Monday, March 19th. One in Graham (Young County) from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm and the second one in Copperas Cove (Coryell County) from 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm. Classes are free and registration is not required! We hope to see you there!

We will have two SKYWARN Basic Class on Tuesday, March 20th. One in Eastland (Eastland County) from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm and the second one in Weathorford (Parker County) from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm. Classes are free and registration is not required! We hope to see you there!

North Texas Storm Dataprepared by the National Weather Service
in Fort Worth, TX

Preliminary Storm Data is posted between 60 and 90 days after the last day of the month.

This section of the Fort Worth National Weather Service Home Page contains unofficial information about storms that have occurred in North Texas. Material is organized by month, so readers should be able to find the information wanted fairly quickly by simply knowing the approximate date of the event.

Storm Data is an official publication of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), part of the Department of Commerce. NOAA prepares, funds, and distributes these official documents which are available by subscription. Subscription, pricing, and ordering information is available from:

The material presented here is collected and compiled by National Weather Service meteorologists at Fort Worth. This involves a variety of methods to collect information on storm events within the state of Texas. These sources include but are not limited to newspaper clippings, eyewitness reports, radar data, storm surveys, and storm spotter reports from amateur radio operators, law enforcement agencies, and emergency management organizations. Because of this involved process, preliminary Storm Data is posted between 60 and 90 days after the last day of the month.

When viewing this data, you will note various estimates of path length and width for tornadoes, as well as dollar estimates for damage to property and crops due to tornadoes, wind and/or hail. Please remember that it is very difficult for us to assign a dollar amount for damages, and many of these estimates are "educated guesses". At times, when it is not possible to assess an amount, a question mark (?), zero (0), or even a blank is put into this column. A zero (0) or blank does not necessarily mean no damage occurred, but rather an estimated dollar damage could not be determined, and the software used to develop these reports would not allow a question mark (?) as an entry.

Storm Data, in it's published form, includes a special section called 'Outstanding Storms of the Month' prepared by the Data Operations Branch of the National Climatic Data Center. This special feature includes photographs of storms and/or storm damage on especially noteworthy storms. Storm Data also includes periodic summaries, weather tables, and statistics prepared by the National Hurricane Center and the Storm Prediction Center.

Storm Data is intended to document storms and their impacts as completely as possible within the constraints of time and resources. However, due to the difficulties associated with the collection of this type of information, it is not all-inclusive. Information provided here should be considered preliminary until it is published in the official publication from the National Climatic Data Center.
